‘They Want the Whole of Georgia’

Remember we are still under the war loving Bush administration with a good chance that the war loving McCain will follow. If those idiots choose to go to war with Russia not only will there be a draft.....(remember wars are still going on in Iraq and Afganastan and we don't have enough troops for those wars), but we all risk two nuclear supplied countries with the power to destroy the world.

If we had not gone into Iraq, Russia would have NEVER attempted this crap because we would have been able to respond.

John McCain's Lobbyist Buddy Randy Scheunemann a McCain Campaign Cronie was a ....Georgian Lobbyist for YEARS !!!

This whole Conflict has been Scripted and all for the World to.. SEE
Remeber Joe Lie-Berman, "If a War Crisis should Happen, who would you want as President" ? Joe Lie-Berman posed that Question, Months ago...Remember ?

Cn't You all SEE this Conflict, was to make John McCain Seem Presidential, yet that Too has Blown Up in his face as well.


WASHINGTON : John McCain's chief foreign policy adviser and his business partner lobbied the senator or his staff on 49 occasions in a 3 1/2-year span while being paid hundreds of thousands of dollars by the government of the former Soviet republic of Georgia.

The payments raise ethical questions about the intersection of Randy Scheunemann's personal financial interests and his advice to the Republican presidential candidate who is seizing on Russian aggression in Georgia as a campaign issue.

McCain warned Russian leaders Tuesday that their assault in Georgia risks "the benefits they enjoy from being part of the civilized world."

On April 17, a month and a half after Scheunemann stopped working for Georgia, his partner signed a $200,000 agreement with the Georgian government. The deal added to an arrangement that brought in more than $800,000 to the two-man firm from 2004 to mid-2007. For the duration of the campaign, Scheunemann is taking a leave of absence from the firm.

"Scheunemann's work as a lobbyist poses valid questions about McCain's judgment in choosing someone who _ and whose firm _ are paid to promote the interests of other nations," said New York University law professor Stephen Gillers. "So one must ask whether McCain is getting disinterested advice, at least when the issues concern those nations."

"If McCain wants advice from someone whose private interests as a once and future lobbyist may affect the objectivity of the advice, that's his choice to make."

McCain has been to Georgia three times since 1997 and "this is an issue that he has been involved with for well over a decade," said McCain campaign spokesman Brian Rogers.

McCain's strong condemnation in recent days of Russia's military action against Georgia as "totally, absolutely unacceptable" reflects long-standing ties between McCain and hardline conservatives such as Scheunemann, an aide in the 1990s to then-Senate Majority Leader Trent Lott.

To the comments by strange. They don't want independence they want to rejoin Russia and there are two sides to every conflict. If everyone in S. Ossetia wanted to be seperate they would already be. The U.S. and the E.U. need to get all their facts straight and not listen to 'he says, she says' bologna. U.S. is allied with Georgia, and they should remember that when making their decision on what to do.

In the matter of fact,
United States and its allies,
are busy in Iraq and Afghan9istan,
there is golden chance for Russia,
for capturing Georgia easly,
because he moving toward its score.

Now Georgia is seprate state,
United States as a single superpower,
The united Nations as globle caretaker,
must be guartee its soverignty.

As for as Russian 's allegations ,
the Geoargia has violated the ceasfire,
it is wrong absolutely wrong has no footings.

I would like to say it a great consiracy,
i describe this move as a considered plot ,
aganist the united nations ,United States,European Union,
world peace as well.

Yes,
I am saying,
it is may be my personal opinion,
for essential for anyone ,
to have full agreement with it,

It may be a fialed effortto change the mood of those,
wanted to next set of ecnomic sanction ,
against Iran.
and new subject ,
put before the student for consideration.

Israel is detrmined to drag the US to a war with Iran just like Geogia wanted to drag the US and Nato to a fight with Russia.

A couple of points:
1 In the international media the background to the Russian-Georgian war is given starting from last week and the bombing of Tshinvali. The military conflict has actually been going on for some years with Russian military planes flying over Georgia and ???unidentified??? bombs and rockets falling into Georgia.
2 The cyberattacks on Georgia started a day before the bombing of Tshinvali.
3 The Russian citizens in South Ossetia to whose aid Russia purportedly rushed were manufactured by Russia in the last few years. Russia simply handed out its passports to anyone who wanted them in South Ossetia.
4 The claim that a war is to defend civilians is ridiculous from a logical standpoint alone. Any peace is better than war for civilians. A country whose primary goal was to protect civilians would not go to war or if it was already in one would withdraw as quickly as possible. That applies to all wars, not just the present one in Georgia.
5 Russia claims that the South Ossetians chose independence from Georgia in a referendum in 2004. A fair referendum in Russian-controlled territory is a contradiction in terms but perhaps South Ossetians really prefer to secede. If Russia wants Ossetians to be independent, it should first grant independence to North Ossetia that is currently part of Russia. That would be a very powerful argument in favour of South Ossetian independence. Russia of course just wants to expand its territory and will incorporate South Ossetia into itself, not give it independence.
6 Russia claims Georgia has perpetrated genocide in South Ossetia. Considering the number of international advisers, consultants, monitors and no doubt spies in Georgia now a genocide would have been noticed very quickly. No other sources besides Russian ones have confirmed the genocide allegations however. A genocide can be carried out relatively unnoticed only in remote and isolated territories where a great power is denying access to the international community. That happened for example in Chechenya where Russia strongly discouraged international observation.
7 There are many similarities between the rhetoric and behaviour of Germany in 1938 and Russia in 2008, for example the defending of one???s citizens abroad argument, accusing a smaller country of attacking a larger one, claiming that the world is biased against them, fostering separatism and ethnic conflict in its neighbours??? territories. Carl Bildt drew some good parallels between Russia and Hitler???s Germany in a recent article.

The US invaded GRENADA beacuse it did not like it's elected goverment, Grenada could never be a threat to any one. the US and the west having double standared here, Georgia acting like a son who turned against his parent with the encourgment and the support of the step parent (US).
